Iā€™ll probably stick to asking for oat milk instead of ā€œporridge waterā€ or whatever the new mandated name will be. To be honest I do think calling it ā€œmilkā€ lets them inflate the price when it is essentially porridge water.

I looked into the high price of plant milks. Itā€™s essentially because the industry is new and still investing in R&D and new factories. The dairy industry has very little innovation now, just court cases.

Donā€™t forget the dairy industry takes lots of health subsidies in many countries too.

Create post

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think ā€œreputable news sourceā€ needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
